The "ScanEntry" class
*********************

A "ScanEntry" object contains information received from a Bluetooth LE
device received during "Scanner" operation. This includes parameters
needed to connect to the device (MAC address, address type), and
advertising data (such as its name or available services) supplied in
the device’s broadcasts.


Constructor
===========

"ScanEntry" objects are created by the "Scanner" class, and should not
be created by the user.


Instance Methods
================

getDescription(adtype)

   Returns a human-readable description of the advertising data ‘type’
   code *adtype*. For instance, an *adtype* value of 9 would return
   the string ""Complete Local Name"". See the Generic Access Profile
   assigned numbers at https://www.bluetooth.org/en-us/specification
   /assigned-numbers/generic-access-profile for a complete list.

getValueText(adtype)

   Returns a human-readable string representation of the advertising
   data for code *adtype*. Values such as the ‘local name’ are
   returned as strings directly; other values are converted to hex
   strings. If the requested data is not available, "None" is
   returned.

getScanData()

   Returns a list of tuples *(adtype, description, value)* containing
   the AD type code, human-readable description and value (as reported
   by "getDescription()" and "getValueText()") for all available
   advertising data items.


Properties
==========

All the properties listed below are read-only.

addr

   Device MAC address (as a hex string separated by colons).

addrType

   Device address type - one of *ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC* or
   *ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM*.

iface

   Bluetooth interface number (0 = "/dev/hci0") on which advertising
   information was seen.

rssi

   Received Signal Strength Indication for the last received broadcast
   from the device. This is an integer value measured in dB, where 0
   dB is the maximum (theoretical) signal strength, and more negative
   numbers indicate a weaker signal.

connectable

   Boolean value - "True" if the device supports connections, and
   "False" otherwise (typically used for advertising ‘beacons’).

updateCount

   Integer count of the number of advertising packets received from
   the device so far (since *clear()* was called on the "Scanner"
   object which found it).
